Orphans Spill Spiders, 5-1
Chicago Orphans starter Addie Joss pitched his team past the Cleveland Spiders, 5-1. The 55-43 Orphans lead the Western League by one game.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bill Dahlen? The Chicago third baseman had a run-scoring single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Orphans on top, 2-1. For the game, Dahlen had 1 double and 2 singles in 4 at-bats.

"Addie had good stuff. When he did get into a compromising count, he made the most of it," said Chicago manager Josh Fisher.
